|In March 2006, the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") issued interpretive guidance in Issue 06-4 ("EITF 06-4"), in which agreements by companies to share a portion of the proceeds of life insurance policies with an employee during the postretirement period is a postretirement benefit arrangement that must be accounted for under SFAS 106, "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions." Under EITF 06-4, the EITF also concluded the purchase of a split-dollar life insurance policy does not constitute a settlement of the postretirement benefit as defined in SFAS 106.

|In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157 ("SFAS 157"), "Fair Value Measurements." SFAS 157 provides guidance for measuring assets and liabilities at fair value. In February 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position ("FSP") 157-2, "Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157." This FSP delays the effective date of SFAS 157 for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis (at least annually), to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008 and interim periods within those fiscal years.

|SFAS 157 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. The price in the principal (or most advantageous) market used to measure the fair value of the asset or liability is adjusted for transaction costs. An orderly transaction is a transaction that assumes exposure to the market for a period prior to the measurement date to allow for marketing activities that are usual and customary for transactions involving such assets and liabilities. Market participants are buyers and sellers in the principal market that are independent, knowledgeable, able to transact and willing to transact.

|SFAS 157 requires the use of valuation techniques that are consistent with the market approach, the income approach and/or the cost approach. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets and liabilities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts, such as cash flows or earnings, to a single present amount on a discounted basis. The cost approach is based on the amount that currently would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement cost). Valuation techniques should be consistently applied. Inputs to valuation techniques refer to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Inputs may be observable, meaning those that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from independent sources, or unobservable, meaning those that reflect the reporting entity's own assumptions about what assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. SFAS 157 establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

|Available for sale securities are reported at fair value primarily utilizing observable inputs (Level 2). The Company obtains fair value measurements from independent pricing services, which base their fair value measurements upon observable inputs such as reported trades of comparable securities, broker quotes, the Treasury yield curve, benchmark interest rates, market spread relationships, historic and consensus prepayment rates, credit information and the security's terms and conditions.

|In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159 ("SFAS 159"), "The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities." SFAS 159 provides companies with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value and to provide additional information that will help investors and other users of financial statements to understand more easily the effect on earnings of the company's choice to use fair value. It also requires companies to display the fair value of those assets and liabilities for which the company has chosen to use fair value on the face of the balance sheet. The Company did not elect the fair value option for any financial assets or financial liabilities as of January 1, 2008, the effective date of this standard.

|In November 2007, the SEC issued SAB No. 109 ("SAB 109"), "Written Loan Commitments Recorded at Fair Value Through Earnings." SAB 109 supersedes SAB No. 105, "Application of Accounting Principles to Loan Commitments," and indicates that the expected net future cash flows related to the associated servicing of the loan should be included in the measurement of all written loan commitments that are accounted for at fair value through earnings. The guidance in SAB 109 is applied on a prospective basis to derivative loan commitments issued or modified in fiscal quarters beginning after December 15, 2007.

|In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 ("SFAS 141R"), "Business Combinations (Revised 2007)." SFAS 141R replaces SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations," and applies to all transactions and other events in which one entity obtains control over one or more other businesses. SFAS 141R requires an acquirer, upon initially obtaining control of another entity, to recognize the assets, liabilities and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree at fair value as of the acquisition date. Contingent consideration is required to be recognized and measured at fair value on the date of acquisition rather than at a later date when the amount of that consideration may be determinable beyond a reasonable doubt. This fair value approach replaces the cost-allocation process required under SFAS 141 whereby the cost of an acquisition was allocated to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair value. SFAS 141R requires acquirers to expense acquisition-related costs as incurred rather than allocating such costs to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as was previously the case under SFAS 141. Under SFAS 141R, the requirements of SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities," would have to be met in order to accrue for a restructuring plan in purchase accounting. Pre-acquisition contingencies are to be recognized at fair value, unless it is a non-contractual contingency that is not likely to materialize, in which case, nothing should be recognized in purchase accounting and, instead, that contingency would be subject to the probable and estimable recognition criteria of SFAS No. 5, "Accounting for Contingencies." The Company does not anticipate the adoption of SFAS 141R will materially impact its consolidated financial statements upon adoption on January 1, 2009.

|Accounting policies involving significant judgments and assumptions by management, which have, or could have, a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets or net income, are considered critical accounting policies. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates. As discussed in the Company's 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K, management has identified the accounting for the allowance for loan and lease losses, review of goodwill for impairment and accounting for income taxes as the Company's most critical accounting policies. There have been no significant changes in the methods or assumptions used in accounting policies that require material estimates or assumptions.

|The Company's net interest income represents the difference between interest income and its cost of funds. Interest income depends on the amount of interest-earning assets outstanding during the year and the interest rates earned thereon. Cost of funds is a function of the average amount of deposits and borrowed money outstanding during the year and the interest rates paid thereon. The net interest margin is calculated by dividing net interest income by average interest-earning assets. Net interest spread is the difference between the average rate earned on interest-earning assets and the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest margin generally exceeds the net interest spread as a portion of interest-earning assets are funded by various noninterest-bearing sources (primarily noninterest-bearing deposits and shareholders' equity). The increases (decreases) in the components of interest income and interest expense, expressed in terms of fluctuation in average volume and rate, are summarized in the Rate/Volume Analysis tables shown on page 24. Information as to the components of interest income and interest expense and average rates is provided under "Average Balances, Yields and Costs"on page 23.

|Because the Company's assets are not identical in duration and in repricing dates to its liabilities, the spread between the two is vulnerable to changes in market interest rates as well as the overall shape of the yield curve. These vulnerabilities are inherent to the business of banking and are commonly referred to as "interest rate risk." How to measure interest rate risk and, once measured, how much risk to take are based on numerous assumptions and other subjective judgments. See also discussion under "Interest Rate Risk" on page 28.

|The quality of the Company's assets also influences its earnings. Loans and leases that are not paid on a timely basis and exhibit other weaknesses can result in the loss of principal and/or interest income. Additionally, the Company must make timely provisions to the allowance for loan and lease losses based on estimates of probable losses inherent in the loan and lease portfolio; these additions, which are charged against earnings, are necessarily greater when greater probable losses are expected. Further, the Company incurs expenses as a result of resolving troubled assets. All of these reflect the "credit risk" that the Company takes on in the ordinary course of business and is further discussed under "Financial Condition - Asset Quality" on page 17.

|The Company's business strategy has been to concentrate its asset generation efforts on commercial and consumer loans and its deposit generation efforts on checking and savings accounts. These deposit accounts are commonly referred to as "core deposit accounts." This strategy is based on the Company's belief that it can distinguish itself from its larger competitors, and indeed attract customers from them, through a higher level of service and through its ability to set policies and procedures, as well as make decisions, locally. The loan and deposit products referenced also tend to be geared more toward customers who are relationship oriented than those who are seeking stand-alone or single transaction products. The Company believes that its service-oriented approach enables it to compete successfully for relationship-oriented customers. Additionally, the Company is predominantly an urban franchise with a high concentration of businesses, which makes deployment of funds in the commercial lending area practicable. Commercial loans are attractive to the Company, among other reasons, because of their higher yields. Similarly, core deposits are attractive to the Company because of their generally lower interest cost and potential for fee income.

|The Company also seeks to leverage business opportunities presented by its customer base, franchise footprint and resources. In 2005, the Bank formed a private banking division and completed the Bank's first acquisition, acquiring the operations of an equipment leasing company located in Long Island, New York ("Macrolease"). The Bank is using the Macrolease platform to generate additional income by originating equipment leases for third parties, as well as increasing the Bank's portfolio of equipment leases.

|The deposit market in Rhode Island is highly concentrated. The State's three largest banks have an aggregate market share of approximately 85% in Providence and Kent Counties, the Bank's primary marketplace (based upon June 2007 FDIC statistics, excluding one bank that draws its deposits primarily from the internet). Competition for loans and deposits remains intense. This competition has resulted in considerable advertising and promotional product offerings by competitors, including print, radio and television media.

|For the three months ended March 31, 2008, approximately 78.0% of the Company's revenues (defined as net interest income plus noninterest income) were derived from its level of net interest income. In a continuing effort to diversify its sources of revenue, the Company has sought to expand its sources of noninterest income (primarily fees and charges for products and services the Bank offers). Service charges on deposit accounts remain the largest component of noninterest income, while the Bank has recently seen growth in gains on lease sales.

|The future operating results of the Company are dependent upon on its ability to maintain and expand its net interest margin, while minimizing its exposure to credit risk, along with increasing sources of noninterest income, while controlling the growth of noninterest or operating expenses.

|Total assets increased by $13.6 million since December 31, 2007. Total loans and leases decreased by $13.2 million during the first quarter of 2008, as the increase in commercial loans of $3.3 million, or 0.6%, was offset by decreases in the primarily purchased residential mortgage loan portfolio of $12.2 million, or 4.9% and a decrease in consumer and other loans of $4.3 million, or 2.0%. Available for sale securities increased $7.3 million, or 2.2%, since year-end. The Bank increased its core deposits by $17.8 million, or 2.8%, since year-end. Within this growth, savings accounts grew by $14.0 million, or 3.5%, and demand deposit accounts increased by $7.2 million, or 4.2%. Borrowings decreased by $14.6 million, or 4.4%, primarily from a decrease in customer retail repurchase agreements. Shareholders' equity as a percentage of total assets was 7.7% at March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007.

|The Company's financial position at March 31, 2008 as compared to the prior year quarter-end (March 31, 2007) reflects net growth of $17.5 million in total loans and leases. This increase reflects the continuing conversion of the balance sheet to a more commercial profile with increases in commercial loans and leases of $44.5 million (up 8.4%). Consumer loans declined $4.6 million (down 2.1%) from the prior year quarter-end. The residential mortgage portfolio declined $22.4 million (down 8.7%) from March 31, 2007 as repayments exceeded new purchases. Also, available for sale securities at March 31, 2008 declined by $8.1 million (down 2.3%). Deposits have increased $9.6 million, or 0.9%, since the prior year quarter-end, with growth centered in savings accounts (up $39.7 million). This increase was offset by decreases in NOW accounts (down $17.3 million), certificate of deposit accounts (down $10.6 million), demand deposit accounts (down $1.6 million), and money market accounts (down $525,000). Borrowings have decreased since March 31, 2007 by $5.2 million, reflecting the Company's redemption of the subordinated deferrable interest debentures held by BRI Statutory Trust II in September 2007.

|The Company's securities in an unrealized loss position were deemed to be not other-than-temporarily impaired after considering that substantially all available for sale securities were rated "investment grade" with unrealized losses primarily caused by market interest rate changes. In addition, the Company has the intent and ability to hold all securities with unrealized losses until recovery or maturity. In making these other-than-temporary impairment determinations, management considers, among other things, the length of time and extent to which the fair value has been less than cost and the credit worthiness and near-term prospects of the issuer. Also, management considers capital adequacy, interest rate risk, liquidity and business plans in assessing the intent and ability to hold all securities with unrealized losses until recovery or maturity.

|The Company's available for sale securities are reported at fair value primarily utilizing observable inputs (Level 2 under SFAS 157). The Company obtains fair value measurements from independent pricing services, which base their fair value measurements upon observable inputs such as reported trades of comparable securities, broker quotes, the Treasury yield curve, benchmark interest rates, market spread relationships, historic and consensus prepayment rates, credit information and the security's terms and conditions.

|The investment portfolio provides the Company a source of short-term liquidity and acts as a counterbalance to loan and deposit flows. During the first quarter of 2008, the Company purchased $66.1 million of available for sale securities, while maturities/calls and principal repayments totaled $47.3 million. Additionally, in the first quarter of 2008, the Company sold $13.1 million of mortgage-backed securities generating gains of $242,000. Fluctuations in market interest rates led to a large number of calls on the Company's investment holdings in the 2008 first quarter resulting in increased volume of investment and mortgage-backed security purchases compared to the first quarter of 2007.

|With the Macrolease platform, the Bank originates equipment leases for its own portfolio, as well as originates leases for third parties as a source of noninterest income. In addition, the Bank historically has purchased equipment leases from originators outside of the Bank. The U.S. Government and its agencies are the principal lessees on the vast majority of these purchased leases. These "government" leases generally have maturities of five years or less and are not dependent on residual collateral values. At March 31, 2008, leases comprised 10.5% of the commercial loan and lease portfolio, with $47.7 million of Macrolease-generated leases and $13.1 million of purchased government leases. Included within these amounts were $1.2 million of leases generated for sale at March 31, 2008.

|Residential mortgage loans -During the first three months of 2008, residential mortgage loans decreased $12.2 million, or down 4.9%. During this period, the Bank did not originate or purchase any mortgages. Comparatively, in the 2007 first quarter, the Bank purchased $5.7 million of mortgages and did not originate any mortgages for its own portfolio. Since inception, the Bank has concentrated its portfolio lending efforts on commercial and consumer lending opportunities, but originates mortgage loans for its own portfolio on a limited basis. The Bank does not employ any outside mortgage originators, but periodically purchases residential mortgage loans from third-party originators.

|Consumer loans -The consumer loan portfolio decreased $4.3 million, or 2.0%, during the first three months of 2008 as repayments of $9.8 million exceeded originations of $5.5 million. The decline in growth through March 31, 2008 was reflective of the softening of housing prices in the local market area over the past few years. The Company believes the softening prices have reduced consumer appetite for borrowing against the value of their homes. However, the Company continues to promote consumer lending as it believes that these ten- to twenty-year fixed rate products, along with floating rate lines of credit, possess attractive cash flow characteristics in the current interest rate environment.

|During the first three months of 2008, competition for deposits remained strong in the Company's market areas. During this period, the Bank increased its total deposits by $23.5 million as compared to December 31, 2007, with growth in most deposit categories. Savings and CD accounts grew $14.0 million and $5.6 million, respectively, over the past three months. By March 31, 2008, demand deposit accounts grew to $179.9 million, an increase of $7.2 million from $172.6 million at December 31, 2007. These increases offset the decline of NOW accounts of $3.5 million. At March 31, 2008, brokered CDs were $10.0 million, or 1.0% of total deposits, down from $20.0 million, or 2.0% of total deposits, at the prior year-end. The Bank may utilize brokered CDs if their rates are attractive compared to wholesale funding.

|Overnight and short-term borrowings decreased $17.9 million during the first three months of 2008 from the December 31, 2007 level of $66.8 million, with one larger customer retail repurchase agreement comprising the majority of this decline. Through the Bank's membership in the FHLB, the Company has access to a number of different funding structures. FHLB borrowings increased by $3.2 million from the December 31, 2007 amount of $241.5 million. Wholesale repurchase agreements remained constant with the December 31, 2007 balance of $10.0 million. The Bank may utilize wholesale repurchase agreement funding in the future if spreads are favorable compared to FHLB borrowings or for diversification purposes.

|The definition of nonperforming assets includes nonperforming loans and other real estate owned ("OREO"). OREO consists of real estate acquired through foreclosure proceedings and real estate acquired through acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure. Nonperforming loans are defined as nonaccrual loans, loans past due 90 days or more but still accruing and impaired loans. Under certain circumstances the Company may restructure the terms of a loan as a concession to a borrower. These restructured loans are generally considered impaired loans.

The increase in nonaccrual loans and leases since year-end relates primarily to a few commercial loans and lease credits.

|The Company evaluates the underlying collateral of each nonperforming loan and continues to pursue the collection of interest and principal. Management believes that the current level of nonperforming assets remains low relative to the size of the Company's loan portfolio. As the loan portfolio continues to grow and mature, or if economic conditions worsen, management believes it possible that the level of nonperforming assets may increase, as may its level of charged-off loans.

|Adversely classified assets - The Company's management classifies certain assets as "substandard," "doubtful" or "loss" based on criteria established under banking regulations. An asset is considered substandard if inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Substandard assets include those characterized by the "distinct possibility" that the insured institution will sustain "some loss" if existing deficiencies are not corrected. Assets classified as doubtful have all of the weaknesses inherent in those classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make "collection or liquidation in full," on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, "highly questionable and improbable." Assets classified as loss are those considered "uncollectible" and of such little value that their continuance as assets without the establishment of a specific loss reserve is not warranted.

|At March 31, 2008, the Company had $10.9 million of assets that were classified as substandard. This compares to $9.5 million of assets that were classified as substandard at December 31, 2007. The Company had no assets that were classified as doubtful or loss at either date. Performing loans may or may not be adversely classified depending upon management's judgment with respect to each individual loan. At March 31, 2008, included in the assets that were classified as substandard were $3.4 million of performing loans. This compares to $5.3 million of adversely classified performing loans as of December 31, 2007. These amounts constitute assets that, in the opinion of management, could potentially migrate to nonperforming or doubtful status. Management believes that the March 31, 2008 level of adversely classified assets is low relative to the size of the Company's loan and lease portfolio. If a significant downturn in the local or regional market occurs or if other economic or market conditions worsen, management believes it possible that the level of adversely classified assets may increase. This in turn may necessitate an increase to the provision for loan losses in future periods.

|Assessing the appropriateness of the allowance for loan and lease losses involves substantial uncertainties and is based upon management's evaluation of the amounts required to meet estimated charge-offs in the loan and lease portfolio after weighing various factors. Management's methodology to estimate loss exposure includes an analysis of individual loans and leases deemed to be impaired, reserve allocations for various loan types based on payment status or loss experience and an unallocated allowance that is maintained based on management's assessment of many factors including the growth, composition and quality of the loan portfolio, historical loss experiences, general economic conditions and other pertinent

Based on this evaluation, management believes that the allowance for loan and lease losses, as of March 31, 2008, is appropriate.

|A portion of the allowance for loan and lease losses is not allocated to any specific segment of the loan portfolio. This non-specific allowance, also referred to as unallocated allowance, is maintained for two primary reasons: (i) there exists an inherent subjectivity and imprecision to the analytical processes employed, and (ii) the prevailing business environment, as it is affected by changing economic conditions and various external factors, may impact the portfolio in ways currently unforeseen. Management, therefore, has established and maintains a non-specific allowance for loan and lease losses. The amount of this measurement imprecision allocation was $1.2 million at both March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007.

|The allocation of the allowance for loan and lease losses at March 31, 2008 remained relatively consistent with the allocation at December 31, 2007. The moderate changes within the allocation were primarily attributable to assessment of risk within each category as well as changes in loan balances.

|While management evaluates currently available information in establishing the allowance for loan and lease losses, future adjustments to the allowance for loan and lease losses may be necessary if conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the evaluations. Management performs a comprehensive review of the allowance for loan and lease losses on a quarterly basis. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review a financial institution's allowance for loan and lease losses and carrying amounts of other real estate owned. Such agencies may require the financial institution to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination.

|The Company's 2008 first quarter net income of $2.3 million decreased by $69,000, or 2.9%, from the prior quarter (three months ended December 31, 2007). Net income was up $148,000, or 6.8%, on a comparative quarter basis (as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2007). Diluted earnings per common share ("EPS") was up 0.5% on a linked-quarter basis (as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2007) and increased 14.2% as compared to the same quarter a year ago.

|The first quarter 2008 net interest income decreased by $155,000, or 1.5%, as compared to the fourth quarter of 2007. The yield on earning assets declined 25 basis points ("bps"), while the cost of liabilities fell 31 bps. These decreases were due in large part to the 200 bps reduction of the Federal Funds rate in the first quarter of 2008.

|Noninterest income for the first quarter of 2008 increased	 on a linked-quarter basis by $200,000. The 2008 first quarter benefited from a gain on the sale of available for sale securities of $242,000 and increases in commissions on nondeposit investment products, which were up $72,000. Partially offsetting these increases were lower service charges on deposits accounts (down $53,000) and other income (down $56,000). In comparison to the 2007 first quarter, noninterest income was up $341,000 for the 2008 first quarter. Service charges on deposit accounts increased by $119,000 compared to the first quarter 2007. This increase, as well as available for sale security gains and increases in commissions on nondeposit investment products, more than offset the decline in gains on lease sales and commissions on loans originated for others compared to the same period a year ago.

|Rate/Volume Analysis -The following table sets forth certain information regarding changes in the Company's interest income and interest expense for the periods indicated. For each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, information is provided on changes attributable to (i) changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by old average balance) and (ii) changes in volume (changes in average balances multiplied by old rate). The net change attributable to the combined impact of rate and volume was allocated proportionally to the individual rate and volume changes.

|The decrease in deposit and borrowing costs was primarily attributable to the reduction of the Federal Funds rate by 200 bps in the first quarter of 2008. However, market competition from bank and non-bank financial institutions continues to be strong in the Company's market area, as does customer demand for higher-yielding deposit products. These two factors, as well as contractual maturities on borrowings and CDs, partially limit the Company's ability to reduce its deposit and borrowing costs as quickly as benchmark rate decreases.

|Management evaluates several factors including new loan originations, actual and estimated charge-offs and the risk characteristics of the loan and lease portfolio and general economic conditions when determining the provision for each quarter. As the loan portfolio continues to grow and mature, or if economic conditions worsen, management believes it possible that the level of nonperforming assets may increase, which in turn may lead to increases in the provision for loan and lease losses.

|Total noninterest income increased $341,000, or 13.3%, to $2.9 million for the first quarter of 2008, from $2.6 million for the first quarter of 2007. The first quarter benefited from gross gains on the sale of available for sale securities of $242,000, while there were no security sales in the first quarter of 2007. Service charges on deposit accounts also increased compared to the first quarter of 2007, with an increase of $119,000, or 9.0%, primarily due to an increase in cash management account fees and deposit fee enhancement programs. Commissions on nondeposit investment products also increased by $90,000, or 75.0%, compared to the first quarter of 2007. These increases were partially offset by lower gains on lease sales and loan commissions,

|Other miscellaneous expenses increased by $28,000, or 2.6%, compared to the same period a year ago.

|The primary source of funds for the payment of dividends and expenses by the Company is dividends paid to it by the Bank. Bank regulatory authorities generally restrict the amounts available for payment of dividends if the effect thereof would cause the capital of the Bank to be reduced below applicable capital requirements. These restrictions indirectly affect the Company's ability to pay dividends. The primary sources of liquidity for the Bank consist of deposit inflows, loan repayments, borrowed funds and maturity of investment securities and sales of securities from the available for sale portfolio. Management believes that these sources are sufficient to fund the Bank's lending and investment activities.

|All FDIC-insured institutions must meet specified minimal capital requirements. These regulations require banks to maintain a minimum leverage capital ratio. In addition, the FDIC has adopted capital guidelines based upon ratios of a bank's capital to total assets adjusted for risk. The risk-based capital guidelines include both a definition of capital and a framework for calculating risk-weighted assets by assigning balance sheet assets and off-balance sheet items to broad risk categories. These regulations require banks to maintain minimum capital levels for capital adequacy purposes and higher capital levels to be considered "well capitalized."

|Interest rate risk management is governed by the Bank's Asset/Liability Committee ("ALCO"). The ALCO establishes exposure limits that define the Company's tolerance for interest rate risk. The ALCO monitors current exposures versus limits and reports results to the Board of Directors. The policy limits and guidelines serve as benchmarks for measuring interest rate risk and for providing a framework for evaluation and interest rate risk management decision making. The primary tools for managing interest rate risk currently are the securities portfolio, purchased mortgages, wholesale repurchase agreements and borrowings from the FHLB.

|The Company's interest rate risk position is measured using both income simulation and interest rate sensitivity "gap" analysis. Income simulation is the primary tool for measuring the interest rate risk inherent in the Company's balance sheet at a given point in time by showing the effect on net interest income, over a 24-month period, of 200 bps interest rate ramps. These simulations take into account repricing, maturity and prepayment characteristics of individual products. The ALCO reviews simulation results to determine whether the exposure resulting from changes in market interest rates remains within established tolerance levels over both a 12-month and 24-month horizon, and develops appropriate strategies to manage this exposure. The Company's guidelines for interest rate risk specify that if interest rates were to shift up or down 200 bps over a 12-month and 24-month period, estimated net interest income should decline by no more than 10.0%. As of March 31, 2008, net interest income simulation indicated that the Company's exposure to changing interest rates was within these tolerances. The ALCO reviews the methodology utilized for calculating interest rate risk exposure and may periodically adopt modifications to this methodology.

|The Company also uses interest rate sensitivity "gap" analysis to provide a more general overview of its interest rate risk profile. The interest rate sensitivity gap is defined as the difference between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities maturing or repricing within a given time period. At March 31, 2008, the Company's one year cumulative gap was a positive $80.9 million, or 5.4% of total assets.

|As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), the Company carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and the Company's Chief Financial Officer. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.

|There was no significant change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company's most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting. The Company continues to enhance its internal controls over financial reporting, primarily by evaluating and enhancing process and control documentation. Management discusses with and discloses these matters to the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors and the Company's auditors.

|(a) | The Company has maintained a stock repurchase program authorized by the Company's board of directors, which has enabled the Company to proactively manage its capital position. The program, which was initially approved on April 18, 2006, authorized the Company to repurchase up to 245,000 shares of its common stock from time to time through open market or privately negotiated purchases. On November 26, 2007, the Company expanded the stock repurchase program to 345,000 shares and also adopted a written purchase plan pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company concluded its repurchase program this quarter. Additionally, in February 2008, the Company's Chief Executive Officer delivered 7,450 shares of the Company's common stock to satisfy the exercise price for 20,000 stock options exercised. The shares delivered were valued at $33.30 per share. The Chief Executive officer paid the balance of the exercise price and all taxes in cash.
